西花蓟马、二斑叶螨与黄瓜新小绥螨的相互关系研究

西花蓟马Frankliniella occidentalis（Pergande）和二斑叶螨Tetranychus urticae Koch是温室花卉与蔬菜上的重要害虫（螨）。植物常被两者同时危害。黄瓜新小绥螨Amblyseius cucumeris（Oudemans）是世界上广泛应用的温室蓟马的生物防治物,有时也被用来防治二斑叶螨。本研究中,在人工气候室盆栽条件下利用黄瓜新小绥螨防治西花蓟马和/或二斑叶螨。结果显示,当每豆株上接入10或20头二斑叶螨时,按照1∶4的益害比释放黄瓜新小绥螨可有效控制二斑叶螨。同样密度比的情况下,5和10头黄瓜新小绥螨的释放量可显著控制西花蓟马的接入量。二斑叶螨密度的增加没有显著影响到黄瓜新小绥螨对西花蓟马的控制作用。西花蓟马可捕食黄瓜新小绥螨的卵,日捕食量达1.2粒。本文对利用黄瓜新小绥螨防治温室中西花蓟马进行了讨论。     

两种植绥螨的同类相残和集团内捕食作用

巴氏新小绥螨(Neoseiulus barkeri)和黄瓜新小绥螨(N.cucumeris)是两种多食性植绥螨,主要捕食叶螨和蓟马等,目前在我国广泛应用于农业生物防治中.本文研究了这两种植绥螨种内的同类相残(cannibalism)和种间的集团内捕食作用(intraguild predation)以及相互之间的攻击强度,以明确两者之间的相互关系,为合理构建天敌组合及评估生物防治的作用提供依据.结果显示:两种植绥螨对同种或异种幼螨的捕食量最大,其次是若螨,而对卵的捕食量极低.两种植绥螨对异种幼螨或若螨的捕食量均极显著高于对同种幼螨或若螨的捕食量.可见,无其他猎物存在情况下,两种植绥螨同时发生时更倾向于发生种间的集团内捕食.而巴氏新小绥螨对异种幼螨或若螨的捕食量均高于黄瓜新小绥螨对异种幼螨或若螨的捕食量,并且巴氏新小绥螨和黄瓜新小绥螨相比,巴氏新小绥螨对异种幼螨的攻击性更强,因此当这两种植绥螨发生集团内捕食时,巴氏新小绥螨是潜在的集团内捕食者,而黄瓜新小绥螨是潜在的集团内猎物.     

加州新小绥螨在不同温度下对六点始叶螨的捕食效能

为明确加州新小绥螨对橡胶六点始叶螨的控害潜能,系统研究了21℃、24℃、27℃、30℃、33℃5个不同温度条件下加州新小绥螨对六点始叶螨各螨态的捕食效能和自身密度干扰效应。结果表明:加州新小绥螨对六点始叶螨若螨、幼螨和卵的选择系数分别为0.71、1.75和0.54。在21℃～33℃条件下,加州新小绥螨对不同螨态六点始叶螨的功能反应均能很好地拟合Holling-II型圆盘方程,其对六点始叶螨雌成螨、若螨、幼螨的捕食效能(a/Th)在30℃时最强,分别达19.91、44.90、189.45头/d,对叶螨卵的捕食能力在不同温度间差异不显著。在同一温度条件下,加州新小绥螨对不同螨态六点始叶螨的捕食量大小依次为:幼螨若螨成螨卵。在相同的猎物密度条件下,加州新小绥螨的捕食作用率随其自身密度的增加而逐渐降低,说明加州新小绥螨存在种内竞争和自我干扰作用,自身干扰系数为0.349。     

巴氏新小绥螨对同一栖息地枸杞瘿螨的捕食功能反应

枸杞瘿螨Aceria pallida Keifer（Acari: Eriophyoidae）是枸杞上为害最严重的有害生物之一。近期在内蒙古地区发现植绥螨巴氏新小绥螨Neoseiulus barkeri Hughes（Acari: Phytoseiidae）与枸杞瘿螨可同时发生在野生枸杞上。为评价巴氏新小绥螨对枸杞瘿螨的捕食潜力,本研究在室内25±1℃、RH 65%±10%、16 L∶8 D的条件下,研究了巴氏新小绥螨对不同密度枸杞瘿螨成螨（30、50、70、90、110、130、150、170头）的捕食功能反应及搜寻效应。结果表明,巴氏新小绥螨的雌、雄成螨对枸杞瘿螨成螨的捕食功能反应均为Holling-II型,即巴氏新小绥螨雌、雄成螨的捕食量随着猎物密度的增加而增加,一直到猎物密度较高时趋于稳定;而巴氏新小绥螨雌、雄成螨的搜寻效应随着猎物密度的增加而降低。巴氏新小绥螨雌成螨对相同密度下的枸杞瘿螨成螨的捕食量均高于雄成螨,而且雌成螨的搜寻效应也强于雄成螨。巴氏新小绥螨雌成螨的攻击率（α=4.4121）高于雄成螨（α=2.4403）,而雌成螨的处理时间（Th =0.0094 d）短于雄成螨（Th=0.0196 d）;雌、雄成螨的理论最大日捕食量（T/Th）分别为106.61头和51.02头。研究结果显示巴氏新小绥螨对枸杞瘿螨有较好的捕食潜力,性别对巴氏新小绥螨捕食枸杞瘿螨的功能反应有显著影响。     

巴氏新小绥螨对猎物搜寻能力的研究

巴氏新小绥螨Neoseiulus barkeri(Hughes)是一种多食性捕食螨,主要捕食叶螨和蓟马等。因其捕食范围广,捕食量相对较大,且易人工繁殖,因此,被广泛应用于农业生物防治中。本文利用温室的释放-回收实验研究了巴氏新小绥螨对截形叶螨Tetranychus truncatus和西花蓟马Frankliniella occidentalis(Pergande)的搜寻能力。实验共设3个处理:(1)叶螨为害植株与清洁植株;(2)蓟马虫害植株与清洁植株;(3)蓟马、叶螨混合为害植株与清洁植株。当捕食螨释放于清洁黄瓜植株和虫(螨)害黄瓜植株交替排列的六角结构的中心时,2种害虫(螨)不论是单独危害还是混合危害,巴氏新小绥螨回收比例随着时间的延长逐渐趋于平缓。释放后1 d之内,叶螨、蓟马及混合猎物处理中回收到的捕食螨分别占释放总量的65.25%±1.61%、62.75%±1.31%和81.75%±2.14%,并且虫(螨)害植株上回收到的捕食螨数量明显比清洁植株多,叶螨、蓟马及混合猎物危害植株回收的捕食螨量分别占释放总量的53.5%±5.6%、49.5%±3.6%和74.0%±2.7%。因此,巴氏新小绥螨对这2种猎物及其混合物均有较强的搜寻能力,能够有效定位作物中有猎物的植株。同时对利用一种捕食螨生物防治温室中同时发生的2种害虫(螨)的可能性进行了讨论。

有益真绥螨与巴氏新小绥螨的集团内捕食和同类相残作用

【目的】有益真绥螨Euseius utilis是北方地区广泛分布的一种多食性植绥螨,而巴氏新小绥螨Neoseiulus barkeri目前在我国广泛应用于农业害虫的生物防治中。本研究旨在对巴氏新小绥螨在本地的应用进行风险评估及为与有益真绥螨的联合释放提供依据。【方法】本研究在室内通过一系列实验,比较了实验室饲养的巴氏新小绥螨和采自内蒙古农业大学校园的有益真绥螨的雌成螨对同种或异种未成熟螨的捕食量、存活时间及产卵量的差异,检测了有益真绥螨与巴氏新小绥螨两种植绥螨相互之间的攻击强度以及种内和种间的相互作用。【结果】两种植绥螨都难以刺吸同种或异种植绥螨的卵,而对同种或异种植绥螨幼螨的捕食量最大,其次是对若螨。在无共同食物的情况下,有益真绥螨雌成螨对同种植绥螨幼螨的攻击性比对异种植绥螨幼螨的攻击性强(BreslowDay检验:χ~2=13.84,df=1,P0.001),且有益真绥螨对同种植绥螨幼螨的捕食量(9.10±1.65头)高于对异种植绥螨幼螨的捕食量(5.31±1.43头)(T检验:t=5.487,P0.001),巴氏新小绥螨对异种植绥螨幼螨的捕食量(7.48±0.75头)高于对同种植绥螨幼螨的捕食量(4.75±0.58头)(T检验:t=9.110,P0.05)。【结论】有益真绥螨更倾向于捕食同种幼螨而发生同类相残;巴氏新小绥螨更倾向于捕食异种幼螨而发生集团内捕食。

Nastic response of maize (Zea mays L.) coleoptiles during clinostat rotation

Rotation of unstimulated maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings on a horizontal clinostat is accompanied by a strong bending response of the coleoptiles towards the caryopsis, yielding curvatures exceding 100°. The corresponding azimuthal distribution shows two peaks, each of which is displayed by 30° from the symmetry axis connecting the shortest coleoptile and caryopsis cross sections. It is argued that this spatial pattern is not the result of two independent bending preferences, but caused by a one-peaked distribution encountering an obstacle in its central part and thus being split into the two subpeaks. The existence of one preferential direction justifies considering this response to be a nastic movement. Its time course consists of an early negative phase (coleoptiles bend away from the caryopsis) followed 2 h later by a longlasting positive bending towards the caryopsis. In light-interaction experiments, fluence-response curves for different angles between blue light and the direction of the nastic response were measured. These experiments indicate that blue light interacts with the nastic response at two levels: (i) phototonic inhibition, and (ii) addition of nastic and phototropic curvatures. It is concluded that phototropic and phototonic transduction bifurcate before the formation of phototropic transverse polarity. The additivity of nastic and phototropic responses was followed at the population level. At the level of the individual seedling, one observes, in the case of phototropic induction opposing nastic movement, three distinct responses: either strong phototropism, or nastic bending, or an avoidance response which involves strong curvature perpendicular to the stimulation plane. With time the nastic bending becomes increasingly stable against opposing phototropic stimulation. This can be seen from a growing proportion of seedlings exhibiting nastic bending when light is applied at variable intervals after the onset of clinostat rotation. At the transition from instability to stability, this type of experiment produces a high percentage of seedlings displaying the avoidance response. However, no cancelling resulting in zero curvature can be observed. It is concluded that the endogenous polarity underlying the nastic response is different in its very nature from the blue-light-elicited stable transverse polarity described earlier (Nick and Schäfer 1988 b).Abbreviation BL blue light (449 nm)     

茶足柄瘤蚜茧蜂对苜蓿蚜的寄生功能反应

在室内(25±1℃,L:D=16:8光周期,RH=40%～60%)条件下,研究了茶足柄瘤蚜茧蜂Lysiphlebus testaceipes(Cresson)对苜蓿蚜Aphis craccivora(Koch)若蚜的寄生功能反应。结果表明:苜蓿蚜的龄期对茶足柄瘤蚜茧蜂的寄生作用有很大影响,用功能反应HollingⅡ模型模拟,其模拟方程为Na=1.118 N/(1+0.0184 N)。通过该方程可明确单头雌成蜂在24 h内最多寄生60.60头苜蓿蚜,其寄生1头苜蓿蚜所需时间为0.396 h。在5个温度梯度下,茶足柄瘤蚜茧蜂对苜蓿蚜的寄生功能反应均符合HollingⅡ模型,但不同温度下的功能反应参数有明显的差异。此外茶足柄瘤蚜茧蜂自身密度对寄生有一定的干扰作用,其干扰作用通过Hassell-Varley模型拟合,方程为a=0.0621P-0.3062,表明茶足柄瘤蚜茧蜂雌蜂的发现域随着自身密度的增加而逐渐变小,寄生蜂雌蜂个体间的相互干扰效应降低了寄生效能。     

黄玛草蛉幼虫对埃及吹绵蚧若虫的捕食功能和数值反应

本文研究了黄玛草蛉Mallada basalis (Walker)捕食埃及吹绵蚧Icerya aegyptiaca(Douglas)若虫的功能反应和数值反应。功能反应研究结果表明,黄玛草蛉2龄和3龄幼虫对埃及吹绵蚧若虫的捕食反应均属HollingⅡ型,拟合方程分别为Na=0.6885×No/1+0.6885×0.0433No和Na=1.2085×No/1+1.2085×0.0200No,相关系数R2分别为0.9867和0.9858,理论日最大捕食量分别为23.09和50.00。数值反应研究结果表明,不同埃及吹绵蚧若虫密度对黄玛草蛉的生长、发育、繁殖有着显著影响。随着猎物密度增大,黄玛草蛉幼虫发育速率、雌虫产卵量、孵化率及雌性比增大,成虫寿命增加,最后趋于稳定。埃及吹绵蚧若虫密度5、10、15、20、30头分别是黄玛草蛉幼虫存活、幼虫化蛹、成虫羽化、后代卵孵化及世代延续的临界值。猎物密度为30、40、50头时,黄玛草蛉能正常生长发育和繁殖,种群的性比、成虫寿命、产卵量及孵化率有一定的差异,但差异不显著。      

Research progresses on <Emphasis Type="Italic">GH3s</Emphasis>, one family of primary auxin-responsive genes

Auxin plays a very important role in plant growth and development. Those genes that are specifically induced by auxin within minutes of exposure to the hormone are referred to as early/primary auxin-responsive genes, mainly including the auxin/indole-3-acetic acid (Aux/IAA), the small auxin-up RNA (SAUR), and the GH3 gene families. So far, GH3 genes have been identified in various plant species including soybean, Arabidopsis, rice, tobacco, pungent pepper, sweet orange, pine, and moss. Twenty members of GH3 family were identified in Arabidopsis and these genes were classified into three groups (Group I–III) based on their sequence similarities and substrate specificities. GH3s belong to acyl adenylate-forming firefly luciferase superfamily and can catalyze adenylation of specific substrates. Group I adenylates jasmonic acid (JA), and Group II adenylates indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and salicylic acid (SA), respectively. Because of the presence of Auxin-Responsive Elements (AuxRE) in the GH3s’ promoter regions, Auxin Response Factors (ARFs) are able to bind to the AuxRE and regulate expression of some GH3s, which in turn modulate the auxin homeostasis. Identification of GH3 mutants in Arabidopsis reveals the function of GH3s in hypocotyl elongation under different light conditions, root growth, stress adaptation, sensitivity to MeJA, or susceptibility to P. syringae. Taken together, GH3s may be linkers among auxin, JA, SA and light signal transduction pathways.     

Seasonal variation in avian auditory evoked responses to tones: a comparative analysis of Carolina chickadees,tufted titmice,and white-breasted nuthatches

We tested for seasonal plasticity of the peripheral auditory system of three North American members of the Sylvioidea: Carolina chickadees (Poecile carolinensis), tufted titmice (Baeolophus bicolor), and white-breasted nuthatches (Sitta carolinensis). We measured three classes of auditory evoked responses (AER) to tone stimuli: sustained receptor/neural responses to pure-tone condensation waveforms, the frequency-following response (FFR), and the earliest peak of the AER to stimulus onset (tone onset response). Seasonal changes were detected in all classes of AERs in chickadees and nuthatches. Seasonal changes in titmice were restricted to the tone onset response. Interestingly, changes detected in chickadees (and to a lesser extent in titmice) were generally in an opposite direction to changes seen in nuthatches, with chickadees exhibiting greater amplitude AER responses in the spring than in winter, and nuthatches exhibiting greater amplitude AER responses in winter than in spring. In addition, the seasonal differences in the sustained responses tended to be broad-band in the chickadees but restricted to a narrower frequency range in nuthatches. In contrast, seasonal differences in the onset response were over a broader frequency range in titmice than in chickadees and nuthatches. We discuss some possible mechanistic and functional explanations for these seasonal changes.

Tissue-selective regulation of protein homeostasis and unfolded protein response signalling in sporadic ALS

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a disorder that affects motor neurons in motor cortex and spinal cord, and the degeneration of both neuronal populations is a critical feature of the disease. Abnormalities in protein homeostasis (proteostasis) are well established in ALS. However, they have been investigated mostly in spinal cord but less so in motor cortex. Herein, we monitored the unfolded protein (UPR) and heat shock response (HSR), two major proteostasis regulatory pathways, in human post-mortem tissue derived from the motor cortex of sporadic ALS (SALS) and compared them to those occurring in spinal cord. Although the UPR was activated in both tissues, specific expression of select UPR target genes, such as PDIs, was observed in motor cortex of SALS cases strongly correlating with oligodendrocyte markers. Moreover, we found that endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) and HSR genes, which were activated predominately in spinal cord, correlated with the expression of neuronal markers. Our results indicate that proteostasis is strongly and selectively activated in SALS motor cortex and spinal cord where subsets of these genes are associated with specific cell type. This study expands our understanding of convergent molecular mechanisms occurring in motor cortex and spinal cord and highlights cell type–specific contributions.     

Immunogenicity of the spike glycoprotein of Bat SARS-like coronavirus

A group of SARS-like coronaviruses(SL-CoV)have been identified in horseshoe bats.Despite SL-CoVs and SARS-CoV share identical genome structure and high-level sequence similarity,SL-CoV does not bind to the same cellular receptor as for SARS-CoV and the N-terminus of the S proteins only share 64%amino acid identity,suggesting there are fundamental differences between these two groups of coronaviruses.To gain insight into the basis of this difference,we established a recombinant adenovirus system expressing the S protein from SL-CoV(rAd-Rp3-S)to investigate its immune characterization.Our results showed that immunized mice generated strong humoral immune responses against the SL-CoV S protein.Moreover,a strong cellular immune response demonstrated by elevated IFN-γand IL-6 levels was also observed in these mice.However,the induced antibody from these mice had weaker cross-reaction with the SARS-CoV S protein,and did not neutralize HIV pseudotyped with SARS-CoV S protein.These results demonstrated that the immunogenicity of the SL-CoV S protein is distinct from that of SARS-CoV,which may cause the immunological differences between human SARS-CoV and bat SL-CoV.Furthermore,the recombinant virus could serve as a potential vaccine candidate against bat SL-CoV infection.
